nothing_o it_o be_v resolve_v that_o a._n shall_v not_o have_v i●_n for_o their_o life_n but_o for_o his_o own_o only_a this_o case_n be_v say_v to_o come_v very_o close_o in_o reason_n to_o the_o case_n in_o question_n for_o as_o here_o the_o intent_n of_o the_o lease_n be_v that_o b._n and_o c._n shall_v be_v estate_v for_o their_o life_n and_o since_o that_o can_v not_o be_v therefore_o the_o name_n of_o they_o shall_v be_v utter_o void_a and_o as_o if_o they_o have_v not_o at_o all_o be_v name_v and_o their_o life_n shall_v not_o stand_v as_o a_o measure_n for_o the_o estate_n of_o a._n so_o in_o other_o case_v the_o intent_n of_o the_o will_n be_v that_o the_o lease_n or_o land_n lease_v shall_v go_v to_o the_o heir_n male_n of_o the_o body_n first_o of_o alexander_n and_o after_o of_o raulphe_n since_o this_o can_v be_v therefore_o the_o word_n and_o name_n of_o heir_n male_n shall_v stand_v for_o a_o mere_a blank_n and_o cipher_n and_o not_o to_o measure_v out_o any_o state_n to_o the_o say_v alex._n and_o ra._n and_o their_o executor_n and_o assign_v also_o it_o be_v say_v on_o the_o defendant_n part_n that_o a_o estate_n for_o life_n in_o the_o judgement_n of_o law_n be_v of_o so_o short_a and_o uncertain_a continuance_n that_o if_o a._n make_v a_o lease_n to_o b._n for_o his_o life_n and_o after_o make_v a_o lease_n of_o the_o same_o land_n to_o c._n for_o year_n now_o shall_v not_o this_o latter_a lease_n be_v void_a absolute_o for_o any_o part_n of_o the_o term_n but_o shall_v stand_v in_o expectance_n of_o the_o death_n of_o b._n and_o as_o soon_o as_o he_o die_v shall_v take_v effect_n immediate_o whereas_o if_o the_o lease_n to_o b._n have_v be_v for_o ten_o year_n or_o any_o like_a term_n than_o the_o lease_n to_o c._n shall_v have_v be_v void_a for_o so_o many_o year_n of_o his_o term_n thus_o it_o appear_v that_o a_o state_n for_o life_n be_v very_o momentary_a in_o the_o judgement_n of_o law_n and_o not_o repute_v of_o any_o certain_a continuance_n so_o much_o as_o for_o a_o day_n but_o it_o be_v otherwise_o of_o a_o estate_n tail_n so_o as_o if_o a._n have_v give_v land_n to_o b._n in_o tail_n do_v after_o without_o indenture_n which_o make_v a_o estoppell_n make_v a_o lease_n to_o c._n for_o xxj_o year_n and_o then_o b._n die_v without_o issue_n during_o the_o term_n yet_o shall_v not_o the_o lease_n take_v effect_n because_o it_o be_v utter_o void_a at_o the_o first_o make_v for_o a_o estate_n tail_n be_v a_o state_n of_o inheritance_n may_v in_o the_o intendment_n and_o judgement_n of_o law_n have_v continuance_n for_o ever_o as_o appear_v both_o by_o the_o case_n of_o adam_n and_o lambert_n where_o it_o be_v hold_v within_o the_o statute_n of_o chauntery_n which_o speak_v of_o gift_n to_o have_v continuance_n for_o ever_o therefore_o a_o reversion_n upon_o a_o estate_n tail_n be_v no_o asset_n nor_o give_v cause_n of_o receipt_n otherwise_o in_o all_o these_o case_n it_o be_v touch_v a_o reversion_n expectant_a upon_o a_o state_n for_o life_n again_o it_o be_v say_v by_o the_o defendant_n council_n that_o a_o estate_n may_v be_v limit_v to_o a._n and_o his_o heir_n during_o the_o life_n of_o b._n with_o remainder_n to_o c._n as_o in_o chudlies_n case_n be_v resolve_v but_o if_o land_n be_v give_v to_o a._n and_o his_o heir_n so_o long_o as_o b._n shall_v have_v heir_n of_o his_o body_n or_o heir_n male_n with_o remainder_n over_o to_o c._n this_o remainder_n be_v utter_o void_a so_o as_o there_o be_v in_o the_o judgement_n of_o law_n a_o great_a difference_n between_o the_o largeness_n and_o continuance_n of_o a_o estate_n tail_n and_o of_o a_o estate_n for_o life_n and_o if_o which_o be_v worth_a the_o observe_n a_o fe●_n simple_a can_v afford_v a_o remainder_n to_o be_v draw_v out_o of_o it_o after_o such_o a_o gift_n to_o one_o and_o his_o heir_n during_o the_o continuance_n of_o a_o estate_n tail_n or_o of_o the_o measure_n thereof_o much_o less_o can_v a_o term_n yield_v such_o large_a thong_n to_o be_v cut_v out_o of_o it_o as_o a_o remainder_n after_o a_o estate_n to_o one_o so_o long_o as_o he_o shall_v have_v heir_n of_o his_o body_n or_o heir_n male_n which_o be_v all_o one_o and_o in_o this_o case_n the_o remainder_n be_v hold_v void_a by_o baldwin_n 7._o and_o shelley_n though_o engl_n field_n be_v of_o contrary_a opinion_n as_o the_o lord_n dyer_n show_v further_o it_o be_v say_v that_o if_o such_o a_o conveyance_n by_o will_n shall_v stand_v good_a it_o will_v raise_v a_o perpetuity_n not_o to_o be_v cut_v off_o by_o any_o recovery_n but_o whereas_o the_o case_n of_o hammon_n have_v be_v relate_v before_o so_o by_o way_n of_o admittance_n it_o be_v argue_v as_o a_o gift_n and_o bequest_n to_o al._n ham._n and_o the_o heir_n male_n of_o his_o body_n with_o remainder_n in_o like_a manner_n to_o ralph_n the_o truth_n of_o the_o case_n be_v that_o the_o word_n of_o the_o will_n be_v only_o to_o alexander_n and_o his_o heir_n male_n not_o speak_v of_o his_o body_n and_o so_o to_o ralph_n which_o as_o be_v urge_v by_o the_o defendant_n counsel_n make_v the_o case_n strong_a against_o the_o plaintiff_n for_o admit_v that_o the_o former_a way_n alexander_n shall_v have_v have_v but_o a_o state_n determinable_a upon_o the_o continuance_n of_o his_o issue_n males_n yet_o here_o not_o so_o since_o the_o reason_n why_o in_o willes_n such_o a_o devise_n be_v make_v the_o law_n shall_v supply_v the_o word_n of_o the_o body_n be_v only_o to_o make_v a_o estate_n tail_n to_o the_o issue_v male_a according_a to_o the_o testator_n intent_n now_o in_o this_o case_n of_o a_o term_n for_o year_n so_o bequeath_v no_o estate_n tail_n can_v possible_o be_v though_o these_o word_n have_v be_v in_o the_o will_n and_o therefore_o the_o motive_n to_o the_o law_n fail_v no_o such_o supply_n will_v be_v make_v by_o the_o law_n since_o it_o will_v be_v to_o no_o purpose_n consequent_o here_o be_v neither_o state_n tail_n nor_o issue_n or_o heir_n male_n of_o the_o body_n on_o who_o continuance_n this_o state_n of_o alex._n shall_v be_v determinable_a therefore_o it_o be_v a_o absolute_a and_o total_a bequest_n of_o the_o term_n to_o alexander_n for_o ever_o viz._n so_o long_o as_o the_o term_n shall_v continue_v for_o as_o a_o bequest_n to_o one_o for_o ever_o be_v asmuch_o as_o a_o bequest_n to_o he_o and_o his_o heir_n so_o a_o bequest_n to_o one_o and_o his_o heir_n be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o it_o have_v be_v to_o he_o for_o ever_o and_o this_o case_n after_o six_o argument_n on_o each_o side_n

it_o will_v be_v observe_v that_o i_o do_v more_o full_o express_v reason_n and_o point_v enforce_v on_o the_o defendant_n part_n then_o on_o the_o plaintiff_n whereof_o let_v these_o two_o reason_n

six_o point_n viz._n that_o where_o house_n or_o land_n hold_v by_o lease_n or_o the_o profit_n thereof_o or_o the_o lease_n or_o term_v itself_o which_o in_o a_o will_n make_v no_o difference_n be_v bequeath_v to_o a._n for_o life_n or_o for_o some_o part_n of_o the_o term_n with_o the_o remainder_n to_o b._n and_o the_o executor_n assent_v that_o a._n shall_v enjoy_v his_o bequest_n 6._o whether_o this_o shall_v enure_v to_o b._n also_o since_o without_o the_o executor_n assent_v 47_o no_o legacy_n can_v take_v

effect_n and_o it_o have_v be_v resolve_v that_o this_o assent_n shall_v be_v effectual_a as_o well_o to_o all_o the_o remainder_n as_o to_o the_o first_o estate_n and_o so_o according_a to_o former_a resolution_n it_o be_v admit_v in_o hamon_n case_n that_o alexander_n his_o assent_n to_o take_v as_o legatee_n suffice_v if_o the_o bequest_n have_v be_v good_a for_o the_o remainder_n to_o ralph_n and_o other_o and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o doubtless_o be_v because_o here_o the_o particular_a estate_n and_o the_o remainder_n be_v all_o but_o one_o estate_n in_o law_n they_o make_v but_o one_o degree_n in_o a_o writ_n of_o entre_fw-fr nor_o shall_v have_v but_o one_o year_n and_o a_o day_n to_o enter_v for_o mortmain_n and_o a_o atturnment_n to_o the_o grantee_n of_o a_o rent_n or_o reversion_n for_o life_n with_o remainder_n over_o do_v enure_v also_o to_o the_o remainder_n which_o be_v a_o assent_n have_v much_o affinity_n to_o that_o of_o the_o executor_n each_o tend_v to_o perfect_v the_o grant_n of_o another_o man_n now_o then_o whereas_o it_o be_v urge_v in_o hammo●ds_n case_n that_o the_o state_n limit_v to_o ral●e_n shall_v take_v effect_n not_o as_o a_o remainder_n but_o as_o a_o new_a estate_n to_o commence_v future_o viz._n when_o alexander_n shall_v be_v dead_a without_o issue_n male_a if_o it_o shall_v be_v admit_v to_o be_v so_o then_o can_v not_o the_o assent_n of_o the_o first_o state_n to_o alexander_n have_v enure_v to_o this_o since_o to_o a._n remainder_n it_o work_v as_o be_v one_o estate_n with_o the_o first_o which_o reason_n must_v fail_v other_o way_n this_o difference_n between_o a_o remainder_n and_o new_a estate_n future_a bring_v to_o my_o mind_n the_o case_n of_o a_o rent_n by_o way_n of_o new_a creation_n grant_v by_o c._n out_o of_o land_n to_o a._n for_o life_n or_o in_o tail_n with_o remainder_n to_o b._n in_o like_a manner_n where_o it_o have_v probable_o be_v hold_v although_o this_o limitation_n to_o b._n can_v be_v good_a by_o way_n of_o remainder_n because_o c._n have_v no_o estate_n in_o the_o rent_n remain_v with_o he_o when_o he_o make_v the_o grant_n to_o a._n yet_o shall_v it_o be_v good_a by_o way_n of_o new_a grant_n and_o creation_n to_o commence_v future_o but_o this_o doubtless_o can_v so_o be_v but_o with_o a_o difference_n for_o if_o the_o grant_n be_v by_o indenture_n between_o c._n on_o the_o one_o part_n and_o a._n only_o on_o the_o other_o part_n now_o b._n be_v no_o party_n to_o the_o deed_n can_v take_v nothing_o by_o it_o except_o by_o way_n of_o remainder_n but_o if_o he_o be_v party_n to_o the_o indenture_n or_o if_o the_o grant_n be_v by_o deed_n poll_n to_o which_o all_o man_n be_v alike_o party_n than_o it_o happy_o may_v enure_v as_o a_o future_a grant_n to_o b._n this_o not_o impertinent_a now_o as_o the_o executor_n assent_v to_o one_o can_v enure_v to_o another_o though_o of_o the_o same_o thing_n except_o by_o way_n of_o remainder_n so_o neither_o can_v it_o any_o way_n where_o the_o thing_n be_v not_o the_o same_o except_z in_o very_o special_a case_n as_o if_o a_o termor_n bequeath_v a_o rent_n to_o a_o and_o the_o land_n itself_o to_o b_o the_o executor_n assent_n that_o a_o shall_v have_v the_o rent_n be_v no_o assent_n that_o b_o shall_v have_v the_o land_n case_n yet_o i_o think_v the_o assent_n that_o b_o shall_v have_v the_o land_n do_v imply_v the_o assent_n that_o a_o shall_v have_v the_o rent_n profit_n 1._o for_o that_o the_o restraint_n impose_v by_o the_o law_n against_o the_o pass_n of_o a_o chattel_n by_o a_o will_n without_o the_o executor_n assent_n be_v out_o of_o respect_n to_o the_o payment_n of_o the_o testator_n debt_n now_o if_o the_o land_n shall_v pass_v to_o b_o it_o be_v no_o more_o available_a to_o the_o testator_n debt_n that_o it_o pass_v discharge_v of_o the_o rent_n then_o charge_v 2._o since_o the_o gift_n and_o bequest_n be_v of_o the_o land_n charge_v with_o the_o rent_n therefore_o if_o this_o bequest_n shall_v take_v effect_n it_o shall_v carry_v the_o land_n according_a to_o the_o testator_n intent_n viz._n with_o this_o charge_n upon_o it_o for_o what_o else_o do_v the_o executor_n in_o this_o but_o assent_n that_o the_o will_n of_o the_o testator_n herein_o do_v stand_v and_o take_v effect_n and_o consequent_o b_o must_v take_v the_o term_n according_a to_o the_o will_n and_o not_o in_o any_o different_a or_o contrary_a manner_n next_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v of_o the_o manner_n of_o assent_n by_o executor_n which_o have_v some_o affinity_n with_o the_o four_o point_n but_o here_o we_o shall_v consider_v only_o of_o assent_n conditional_a now_o to_o this_o purpose_n we_o will_v cast_v our_o eye_n upon_o two_o sort_n of_o condition_n viz._n precedent_n and_o subsequent_a as_o for_o ●he_n former_a a_o executor_n may_v to_o a_o legatee_n absolute_o give_v assent_n upon_o a_o condition_n precedent_n as_o thus_o i_o be_o content_a that_o if_o you_o can_v get_v and_o bring_v in_o to_o i_o such_o a_o bond_n wherein_o the_o testator_n stand_v bind_v unto_o i._n s._n that_o then_o you_o enter_v upon_o the_o term_n or_o take_v the_o corn_n or_o cattle_n to_o you_o bequeath_v so_o of_o other_o like_a condition_n which_o may_v precede_v the_o assent_n as_o if_o you_o can_v get_v the_o assent_n of_o my_o coexecutor_n or_o if_o you_o will_v pay_v the_o arrearage_n of_o rent_n to_o the_o lessor_n behind_o at_o the_o testator_n death_n or_o if_o you_o will_v pay_v the_o wage_n already_o due_a to_o the_o servant_n attend_v about_o the_o cattle_n or_o corn_n to_o you_o bequeath_v in_o this_o case_n if_o the_o condition_n be_v not_o perform_v there_o be_v no_o assent_n and_o therefore_o the_o condition_v in_o this_o manner_n be_v good_a but_o if_o it_o be_v upon_o a_o condition_n subsequent_a as_o thus_o i_o do_v agree_v that_o you_o shall_v have_v the_o thing_n bequeath_v to_o you_o provide_v that_o you_o shall_v pay_v so_o much_o yearly_o to_o i_o or_o to_o such_o a_o creditor_n of_o the_o testator_n now_o the_o legatee_n enter_v into_o or_o take_v the_o thing_n bequeath_v shall_v not_o lose_v it_o again_o by_o fail_v to_o perform_v the_o condition_n afterward_o for_o the_o executor_n by_o his_o assent_n can_v make_v that_o legacy_n conditional_a which_o the_o testator_n give_v absolute_o no_o more_o than_o he_o can_v make_v that_o bequest_n to_o be_v absolute_a which_o the_o testator_n give_v conditional_o except_o by_o a_o release_n make_v of_o the_o condition_n as_o in_o other_o thing_n so_o in_o this_o the_o executor_n assent_n be_v like_a to_o the_o atturnment_n of_o a_o lessee_n which_o can_v be_v upon_o a_o condition_n subsequent_a where_o the_o grant_n be_v absolute_a or_o without_o condition_n though_o yet_o he_o may_v to_o his_o atturnment_n prefix_v a_o condition_n precedent_n in_o the_o eight_o place_n we_o be_v touch_v the_o bequest_n of_o lease_n or_o chattel_n real_a to_o consider_v what_o manner_n of_o interest_n one_o to_o who_o a_o remainder_n of_o a_o term_n after_o the_o death_n of_o another_o be_v limit_v have_v and_o whether_o he_o may_v grant_v the_o same_o or_o dispose_v thereof_o during_o the_o life_n of_o the_o first_o and_o as_o to_o that_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o he_o have_v but_o a_o possibility_n of_o remainder_n for_o that_o possible_o the_o whole_a term_n may_v be_v spend_v in_o the_o life_n of_o the_o first_o to_o who_o during_o his_o or_o her_o life_n it_o be_v bequeath_v now_o a_o mere_a possibility_n be_v not_o grantable_a therefore_o be_v it_o resolve_v in_o the_o late_a queen_n time_n case_n where_o he_o in_o remainder_n grant_v or_o sell_v his_o state_n or_o interest_n to_o another_o during_o the_o time_n of_o the_o first_o that_o this_o grant_n be_v

so_o a_o legacy_n since_o debt_n be_v in_o law_n and_o conscience_n to_o be_v satisfy_v before_o any_o legacy_n that_o therefore_o the_o executor_n have_v not_o sufficient_a otherwise_o to_o satisfy_v his_o testator_n debt_n may_v sue_v for_o this_o debt_n and_o refuse_v to_o suffer_v it_o to_o pass_v away_o as_o a_o legacy_n and_o to_o this_o opinion_n do_v i_o incline_v as_o best_a for_o

although_o there_o be_v a_o assent_n of_o the_o executor_n to_o this_o discharge_n yet_o it_o will_v not_o amount_v to_o a_o legal_a release_n for_o that_o a_o debt_n at_o least_o esse_fw-la if_o it_o

in_o tithe_n advowsons_n commons_o fair_n and_o like_a thing_n be_v grant_v or_o assign_v otherwise_o then_o by_o deed_n yet_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o such_o a_o state_n for_o year_n in_o any_o of_o
